I am interested in a high flow of an Rb25 turbo, as long as there is not too much involved with getting the lines altered.

Is there any people in for definate yet, or is it still all in the process at the moment?

Thanks,

Abu

Ok people, ive spoken to John again and this is the go. With the JOURNAL bearing high flow for $1100, you need to provide John with your turbo and the actuator for it to be highflowed. You dont need to provide the LINES as you can use your stock lines. Now if anybody wants a ball bearing these will be $1550, but five people are needed to purcahse this. With the ball bearing, you need to provide the lines as John will modify them. Otherwise you can do it yourself. Everything else, as in bolts, washers will be provided to bolt back on to your turbo. There is not a lot of mucking around.

Heres all the information you guys need. So is anyone in?

SoFly and Munkey: $1550 for ball bearings on the condition that we get five. You need to provide your oil and water lines to be modified though.

Abu: If you get a journal bearning, all you need is the turbo (with actuator) as the lines do not need to be modified (turbo is only oil cooled anyway). If you want ball bearning, you need to supply the lines, and they will be modified as part of the cost

Cheers

Great to see you guys dealing with Precision Turbo's again! My GB sparked approx 40 high flows all with excellent results!

Good luck to all

I installed one of Johns BB R33/VG30 highflows on the weekend.And honestly cant wipe the smile off my face.

The car will be tuned Monday week so ive just been driving around off boost and occasionally creeping into the 2psi range.Very torquey an boost starts at about 2000rpm.Had to go to Pirtek to get some braided line made up,but its DEFINATLEY worth the effort.

With the cams,555s and Z32 that will be installed next week with the tune i will probably hit 270rwkw at 1.2bar.

If you can stretch your budget i would seriously consider the BB option!

There was a delay at UAS so i wont get my car back till Wednesday night.

Suspense is killing me!

What i know so far is that the boost will be set on high at 16psi and low at 10psi.

Should a safe and solid tune.Im hoping for 260rwkw.

Hey guys.

I know not everyone has the priveledge of being able to get a turbo at wholesale price, but I recommend making friends with someone that works at Repco, cos I can get a Garrett GT30RS Twin BB for approx $1300 - $1400 through a friend. I dunno, it seems like a lot of money for a journal bearing turbo. Im currently running a journal bearing unit with VG30 housing and im not happy with the amount of lag, but I only payed $800.

Im not trying to be a dick, just throwing some other ideas into the mix. Even at RRP I reckon a new twin BB unit would be worth the extra few hundred.

Croydon are doing some really good prices: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=169697

    • You've just discovered a really good reason to tell yourself, yes, I do need to buy an aftermarket ECU. Put the MAF in the bin. Slap in the new ECU and have a think about what turbo sounds you prefer.  Do you want a 90's style BOV wooosh? Do you want a hektik tsututututu?  Mate, can't go wrong. Just gotta get that ECU and the world is your oyster. 
    • Hi. Iam just curisou about this topic. I saw this video. It is about Greddy Type FV2. I know that BoVs are about that sound but how and when to use it? I read some topic here and from what i have understand on stock RB with MAF there will be some "problems" if you use this BoV? It vents the air in to the atmosphere and the MAF on stock car needs this air back in to the intake and not out? Or is it wrong? If so...i saw you can put some adaptor to circule air back...but does that not "loose" that sound? I saw another BoV from Turbosmart and it has two "exhaust" like ports? One is for the stock tubing for letting air back and one is for "sound" and let the air in the atmosphere? Can someone please explain? This is the Greddy one:  And this is the Turbosmart.     THANK YOU!! EDIT: So i read about this topic some more and i if i understand that correctly: That Greddy can function either like BoV or 100% Bypass valve? And that Turbosmart is what they called hybrid so you can adjust what and how many air can be vented out or back in? Is this right? THX!
    • That dirty voltage drop is the culprit I suspect 
    • i cant get them all in 1 screenshot unfortunately as i just dont know how to move things around tbh, but they are all from the same log and the line crosses at the same point for all of them
    • It's about time I start work on my sun tan. So I knocked up a few parts that will all combine together to become my new power steering reservoir. Now just to produce an abundance of UV and IR rays while melting a heap of bits of alu to become one... Well, that's after I put one more hole in it for the return line to plumb to. It likely won't be this weekend, as Sunday I'm meant to be in doing some last minute stuff to the AMG race car, and the weekend after will be filled with non my Skyline stuff, followed by Bathurst 6 hour. So I don't expect to get to melt metal for at least 3 weeks.   I also managed to stuff up and start cutting the hole for the res to pump pipe on the wrong side of the line... It means instead of the lines being nice and tight against the inner guard, they'll be out off the guard.    The size of it means I should end up with about 1.8L of power steering fluid, and still have space for another half a litre before it reaches the overflow/breather. This is wayyyyyyy more capacity than factory, which should help keep Powersteer oil temps lower, and the design hopefully allows it to prevent any aerated oil being able to makes its way down to the bottom as it'll have a couple of baffles and some hopeful trickery to force air bubbles away from the bottom.
